Velocity Micro showcases uber-mini x86 desktop PC

Velocity Micro – a boutique builder of PCs – has introduced an uber-mini desktop PC that would make a pefect entertainment center or hub for the living room.

Dubbed the Edge Mini, the system measures 4-inches square and only 1.5-inches thick.

It’s not exactly a record-breaking performer, but the PC should have plenty of oomph for checking email, watching Netflix, and browsing the web when connected to your TV. Then again, it’s not exactly a low cost device, as the starting price is a cool $499 that scales up accordingly based on options.

Along with the new mini desktop computer, Velocity Micro has also debuted two new Android tablets: the Cruz D610 and Q610. The D610 is loaded with an Allwinner (ARM) dual-core processor, while the Q610 offers quad-core Allwinner action. Both tablets boast 10-inch displays and run Android 4.1. Tablet starting price? Around $199.

It should probably also be noted that Velocity Micro recently announced a new 23-inch AIO mahcine dubbed the Edge AIO.
